RUN FAR, RUN FAST! Dirty, broken down, and a horrible urine smell throughout the place. Room floors were dirty and dusty (they sweep around things). Huge spots on the carpet every few feet.<br>Unorganized administrators. Three admins will tell you three different things.<br>Ask front desk person 3 questions - her answer to each was "I don't know" didn't offer to find the answers, just went back to her phone.<br>The desk going to the live in's hall is ALWAYS empty.

Cottingham is a wonderful community with caring staff members who go above and beyond! This is a great facility for residents or loved ones to live or receive rehabilitation services.

The place was very terrible and was very disappointed because my mother was only there for at the most five to six days and her first day there she was not attended to for about 4 hours when I got up there to see her and she was wet and upset and hungry and no one knew anything that she was in that room or knew anything about her and when I finally tracked a nurse aide she was in with my mother for about 45 minutes to an hour cleaning her up changing sheets and that should have been something that was supposed to been done hours ago. And when we came in me and my wife everyone was on their phone talking to each other and not attending the residents and I was totally disappointed because only thing I was thinking was trying to get her out of there. And I suggest that when you hire people you hire people that want to make a difference and want to help the residents and assist the residents instead of being on their phone sitting in chairs ordering take out and not doing the job that is supposed to be done

The visit with my friend was awesome. However, the facility was a little disappointing. The second we entered the double doors a strong scent of urine hit us in the face. We turned on another Hallway and bam there it was again. It could have been potty time. But we were there at least an hour. The smell never went away. I'm hoping this was just a bad day and it won't be that way on the next visit. Thank you.
